In a journey that takes him across Barbados, India and Nigeria, Sathnam Sanghera explores the deep, international legacy of the British Empire across the quarter of the planet that it occupied. From the creation of tea plantations to the imperial connotations of Royal tours, Empireworld examines the gap between Britain’s idea of its imperial history and the wider world’s experience of it. Taking a vital step, Empireworld demonstrates how deeply ingrained British imperialism is and why it is time Britain was honest with itself about empire.
